I was gonna say the same thing. I'm not familiar with the Austrian laws, so I cannot comment on this in an informed manner.

Austria, apparently, has a blasphemy law.

Section 188 of the Austrian Criminal Code, called ‘Vilification of Religious Teachings’, criminalizes: “Anyone who publicly disparages a person
or thing that is the object of worship of a domestic church or religious society, or a doctrine, [or other] behavior is likely to attract legitimate
offense…” This de facto ‘blasphemy’ law has been used in practice to prosecute and fine individuals.

The 'Birmingham Koran' fragment that could shake Islam after carbon-dating suggests it is OLDER than the Prophet Muhammad

It is believed that the Birmingham Koran was produced between 568AD and 645AD, while the dates usually given for Muhammad are between 570AD
and 632AD.
Historian Tom Holland, told the Times: 'It destabilises, to put it mildly, the idea that we can know anything with certainty about how the Koran
emerged - and that in turn has implications for the history of Muhammad and the Companions.'
Keith Small, from the University of Oxford's Bodleian Library, added: 'This gives more ground to what have been peripheral views of the Koran's
genesis, like that Muhammad and his early followers used a text that was already in existence and shaped it to fit their own political and theological
agenda, rather than Muhammad receiving a revelation from heaven.

Wow! Laws to silence people...Laws that keep expanding the meaning of hate speech...Laws that cover up historical truths because the truth
hurts...Laws that punish truth-tellers and protect feelings rather than lives. Something is wrong in this world.

Why are there people that even today give pedophilia a pass or minimize it for a religious group. It's disgusting! Even at this very moment, there
are people that want to label pedophilia as a "sexual orientation" to minimize its deviancy.

Something is loose in this world and it is operating as a wolf in sheep's clothing under the banner of inclusion for all and acceptance for
everything. As an intelligent species, we have to maintain taboos and human standards, or we are doomed.

Doesn't change anything. The dude was still a pedo.

Islam worships a pedo. Nuff said.

Most people in Mohammed's time married young girls. It was the cultural norm. In fact, it wasn't more than 100 years ago that the Catholic church was
arranging marriages for girls at age 7, and allowing them to formally marry (and presumably consummate) at age 12 for girls:

Historically within the Catholic Church, prior to the 1917 Code of Canon Law, the minimum age for a dissoluble betrothal (sponsalia de futuro) was
7 years in the contractees. The minimum age for a valid marriage was puberty, or nominally 14 for males and 12 for females.
